- someone who has their head stuck in the toilet on guys and who's dignity as well as the dignity of others through her own eyes is getting erased farther every day just because she's listening to what everyone else is telling her its all supposed to be rather than paying attention to the bottom line. I don't hate em but geez...they need to check their reality and just how fulfilled their soul really is living in that cracker-jack world at the same time...

- someone who needs to rollcast people, assign them identities before they know the first thing about them, and really doesn't see the beauty in them but rather is too stuck on the societal label everyone wears based on the superficials. You don't need to date anyone you don't want to, no argument there, but there's a lot of people you could learn a lot about life from - if you could just take the blinders off and look around you for a second you'd see its all BS. An addendum, people who could give two s--ts about wisdom and bettering their own life through it.... kinda just another reflection on the same underlying problem here...

- someone who wants to get theirs from life, mostly through other people, and will do it under all kinds of pretense. Its an information and service job market, women are almost suited better than guys for the work world so please don't lean into your man because after earning a 4 year and climbing the corporate ladder you've got a ring and realize you'd rather sit home and watch TV while he does the work.

- our kids have to be just like the Jone's kids; gotta be as good if not better than their kids at every sport, need to be popular, and need a dad who's the spitting image of popular conformity who'll make them alpha drones. My advice - stay single and just watch Soap Operas until your 60, its the only place where that world really makes sense and if you don't go that route at least find a guy who's just like that rather than trying to clamp it down over him and running a guilt trip on him for every little breach of conformity or heresy he commits against popular culture. Yeah, I don't want my kids to be getting beat up or walked on but I definitely want streetwise, smart, analytical, thinking for themselves, and generally following the beat of their own drum just because the other way is really no way to live - its kinda like death at birth with about 80 years of slow decline tacked on.

- uses sex to control. Yeah, some guys are really sadly relinquished to the system, don't know reality or themselves that well, and you can thread them along rather nicely (or just keep everything seeming straight until you get a ring on em). If you want to try that with a guy who knows who he is or what he wants from life....pfff....have fun with that, let me know how it turns out...

Men who don't love the flying spaghetti monster.

Only fake men don't love the flying spaghetti monster.

Bad breath
Brown or black teeth
Guys who are cruel
Guys who act really pompously

People who tend to think they are the only ones on the planet worthy of anyone's approval.

People who have serious issues but insist that their S.O. is the one to get checked out, because it can't *possibly* be them!

People who voice opinions about things but can never back them up, because they haven't bothered to sit for 10 minutes and think about it some.

People that insist that just because they had a good experience talking to so-and-so that you HAVE TO talk to this person as well.

People that try to make all of your decisions for you just because they think they know what is best (or, it's what they would do).

People who think helping someone out means doing everything for them instead of explaining how to do something.

People who always expect you to be the one to change, because, as we all know, there is NO WAY they should have to change anything about themselves.

You know, I think the only real 'problem' here is that people seem to be personalizing everything they see by the opposite sex rather than just taking the title 'put offs' for what it is. Just get your emotions in check and stop projecting things on yourself, you'll be ok.

Not really, its all stuff I've seen happen to friends. Mind you though, its a put-off thread not a broadbrush of everyone; there's traits that make some guys jerks and there's traits that make some women jerks, I just hate seeing people do damage and getting too wrapped up in themselves to see the truth.
